even with sunshine laws in place, review is generally limited much like foia requests

abuse is possible but you can’t pre legislate that entirely away

and for sure an educated involved populace is needed, unfortunately that is the nature of all politics/reform etc

to your first point i agree, well meaning noble savage stereotypes can be as damaging to resolving problems as spiteful biggotry

i have no medical experience but ive seen this first hand with serving the homeless population

leadership and rule makers should have to actually do the rounds of any job they are legislating but that’s hard work and little money when running for office to take bribes is so much more lucrative
